Hi.. My beardie girl has been glass surfing for a few days to a week now. She laid eggs weeks ago and it stopped and just now picked up again. She has been running around and scratching at her glass.

I did recently reorganize her terrarium and put a new hammock in there, but I'm sure this is not why. She usually doesn't seem to care much when I rearrange things. And I did it because she was doing it before and made a mess of her poo, so I cleaned it up, gave her a bath, and redecorated to see if maybe she was just bored.

I thought it was her reflection (which kind of helped) I stuck a few pieces of paper up to hide it and she seemed to stop scratching in one area, but her hammock she would get on it seek out on purpose just to scratch at the paper. More than half the time her reflection never bothered her anyway. She can see it when my room is dark since there's nothing for her to look into. Has never scratched at the door or anything.

Her stools have been ok: normal, and then every day she would give a little "leak" with a small piece or some water. I don't know if maybe this is what's causing it.

I feed her bsfl every other - every 2 days, kale and some vegetables every day, usually I switch between collards and kale but with the virus it's hard for me to go out and get some new collards.

Her uvb is a reptisun tube, mounted inside, maybe 12-16 inches from her basking spot. Her basking spot itself is somewhere between 90-105, I need new batteries for my temp meter so I'm waiting until the next time my parents go to the store.

It didn't seem like the paper helped. I tried to take her out to see if she just needed to run around, and she fought to go back to her cage. Her behavior seems to be fine otherwise. She is eating properly. Just annoyingly scratching and running around, and the last time she did this she laid eggs, so I don't know what it could be this time. I have tried to rule out typical glass surfing reasons and I have nothing left. If anyone has any other ideas, that would be helpful.

Are you able to take her out and let her run around the house a bit? Sometimes they get really energetic and need space to explore and blow off some steam. You could possibly set up a portable basking light for her in your room and see how that goes. Giving her time on a window sill to look outside often helps occupy their mind too.

I would but with her mini poops I think she would ruin it.. lol!! I can try and set up a space for her. My house isn't very beardie proof but I might be able to do something in the living room. I thought she just wanted out but she seemed to fight to get out of my hands and she typically doesnt fight if i try to take her out.

That's what I had thought about mine too but it seemed too soon. I can't feel any eggs right now but I will keep an eye out and see if there's any way I could order stuff for a dig box online. thanks guys

I didn't cause it was a surprise! lol! I thought mine was a guy for over a year. The breeder told me it was a guy, and I resexed her around 10 months but I must have not seen it well enough. I just got home and she was laying eggs on the tile. I will have to look up what kind of stuff to get her, and hope she doesn't lay anything within the next few days hehe. Do I put the dig box in her enclosure? Or put her in it everyday?

If your enclosure is big enough you could put one in but I think most people make one outside of it using a plastic storage bin. If you can go out with what's going on, big box home improvement stores like home depot and lowes should be open and they carry everything you should need to set one up.

Update: she definitely is gravid and I'm kind of in a sticky situation. Need to take my mom for teeth surgery in a few hours, but i have the sand and the tub.

I am still not sure how to set up a light over the lay box. I'm not even sure I will have time to try to get creative and set something up; will she be okay in the lay box without light for a couple hours until I can come home and set something up? Or should I just leave her in the enclosure?She started digging a lot yesterday on the tile. I assume that means I have a short time frame before she starts layin', either today or in a couple days span
